they said in order to start any kind of process, that assad must step down. we spoke to george subright, with the syrian national coalition, the opposition bloc. he told that assad repeated the same words and concepts from the past two years of the syrian revolution. unfortunately he didn't tell the truth about what happened in syria. who bombed the bakeries? who bombed the petrol stations. he said his government can deal with the political solution in syria. if this kind of government can deal with the political solution, why did he wait for two years to announce this solution? we also heard from british secretary william hague and he struck a note of skepticism in triter he so-called assad's speech hypocritical. death, violence and depression engulfing syria of his own making. this fools no one. this is very much like what we're hearing from the rest of the international community we must add one more thing. during his remarks, we heard from opposition activists that shelling was still going on in various parts of syria. since then we've heard 55 people kil
